About Relay Therapeutics, Inc.
About Relay Therapeutics, Inc.
Relay Therapeutics advanced zovegalisib into the Phase 3 ReDiscover-2 Trial in Q2 2025, targeting PI3Kα-mutated HR+/HER2- breast cancer patients previously treated with a CDK4/6 inhibitor, with 540 patients randomized against capivasertib plus fulvestrant. The estimated addressable population totals approximately 140,000 patients annually in the U.S. In February 2026, the FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy designation to the zovegalisib-plus-fulvestrant combination, a regulatory milestone that provides more intensive FDA guidance and review.
Relay generates no commercial revenue; the company funds operations through capital markets and its balance sheet. Zovegalisib is the sole compound in late-stage development; two earlier-stage candidates — NRAS inhibitor RLY-8161 and a non-inhibitory chaperone for Fabry disease — remain in preclinical or early clinical stages. The Dynamo platform uses cryo-EM structures and long-timescale molecular dynamics simulations to identify allosteric pockets in target proteins, differentiating its approach from orthosteric PI3Kα inhibitors such as alpelisib and capivasertib, which carry high rates of severe hyperglycemia. In June 2024, Relay entered a global clinical trial collaboration with Pfizer to evaluate zovegalisib in combination with fulvestrant and atirmociclib — Pfizer's selective-CDK4 inhibitor — in PI3Kα-mutated metastatic breast cancer. In December 2024, the company licensed lirafugratinib (RLY-4008) to Elevar Therapeutics under an exclusive global agreement, removing the FGFR2 inhibitor from the company's P&L while preserving the zovegalisib franchise.

Pipeline binary risk dominates Relay's investment profile. The Phase 3 ReDiscover-2 Trial is enrolling 540 patients with no primary endpoint data expected until the study matures. Interim data from the Phase 1/2 ReDiscover Trial as of October 15, 2025 showed a 39% objective response rate and 10.3-month median PFS in the key efficacy subset, but these are Phase 1/2 results; the Phase 3 comparator (capivasertib plus fulvestrant) is an approved regimen. If ReDiscover-2 fails to demonstrate superiority, the company's entire commercial pipeline could be at risk.
